Winning more points at the kitchen! 🧑‍🍳

Tip of the day

Jordan and Kaden from Briones Pickleball focus on the importance of footwork at the kitchen line.

They emphasize that efficient footwork is crucial for maintaining control and consistency during play.

The video primarily discusses the shuffle step, a common footwork pattern for lateral movement.

Jordan and Kaden demonstrate how to initiate the shuffle step with the inside leg, maintaining a wide stance for stability.

They also cover the angled shuffle step, used when players must move back from the kitchen line to handle deeper shots.

This step involves moving back at a 45-degree angle, allowing players to hit the ball in front of their body.

The video includes drills and live rally demonstrations to showcase the practical application of these footwork techniques in-game scenarios.
